    slave output for the wet sound?

    Yep, definitely a good idea. Run the Slave Out to a rack effects unit, then run that to the effects return of another amp.

    What Chorus¿¿

    I use my Electro Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress for clean tones. It creates a very warm, swirly ethereal chorus. Really nice.' It's nice and full too when used with high gain, but does sound a bit over the top. Good for tiny little passages or the occasional Pink Floyd tune. I also have a...

    MK IV Question

    So I guess that if you plug a dummy cable into the left fx return, you could turn the Loop 'on' to turn off the Satellite Send, and then turn the Loop 'off' to turn on the Satellite Send?

    What FX r u using w/ yer IIC+?

    I also have a H2O pedal, that I use with my MarkIV. It sounds great for clean tones. I like the sound of the chorusing of it when I run it with high gain- it's very nicely lush and rich, but unfortunately the bottom end thunk gets a little bit diminished, even when running the dry out to the...

    4ohm speaker inputs- actually 8 ohms?

    Sorry, it's a confusing setup. I have two 4x12 cabs, and want to run them w/d/d/w, as if each vertical pair of speakers is a 2x12 cab. Ideally I want to run each pair at 8 ohms.

    4ohm speaker inputs- actually 8 ohms?

    The MarkIV has three speaker outputs- one 8 ohm mono output, and two 4 ohm outputs, wired in parallel. I believe that means that each "4 ohm" socket connects to an 8 ohm load (cab). My Stiletto cab appears to have the same type of speaker inputs- one 8 ohm, and two "4 ohm" inputs. Does this...

    6L6 stereo power amp?

    Secondhand Mesa/Boogie 50/50s are cheap. And GOOD.

    You need a mixer.

    What effects

    Sounds like a chorus effect, set with a slow rate and large width. Sounds bell-like.

    Analogman Bi-Chorus in FX loop Mark III?

    It doesn't work better in my effects loop, and I use amp distortion. Lots of amp distortion. The chorus sounds a lot better when in front of the amp.

    6L6 Power tubes difference in MARK IV

    I run a pair of Mesa/Boogie str440 6L6 poweramp valves, and a pair of Svetlana EL34 poweramp valves, Simul-Class, mid-gain. Sounds fantastic. 8)

    James Hetfield's Mark II C+ "Crunch Berries"

    A lot of James Hetfield's guitar tone on Turn the Page & Astronomy from that album, is a Wizard Modern Classic loaded with E34Ls. Man that tone is HUGE! Of course there's the TriAxis/Recto combo, but the Wizard's articulation and full-bodied hi-fi punch stomps through everything!

    mesa mark iv- 6l6's or el34's??

    Anything AC/DC. Anything Scorpions. Anything old Mercyful Fate.

    Mark IV high gain tube

    You won't get 'crunch berries' tone by changing the valves.

    Anyone else not pull out the MKIV lead drive pull bright?

    I keep my Lead Drive knob pushed in. The tone is bright enough with the Lead Treble turned up to 9, and with high settings of 6.6kHz on the graphic EQ. But I do always keep on the Mid Gain switch. I used to run it in Harmonics, but conversely it sounds a lot more 'harmonic' & detailed and...

    Eq this and that

    I use the in-built graphic EQ in my MarkIV amp head. I also run a Danelectro Fish & Chips graphic EQ pedal in front of the amp, occasionally. I have a rackmount 5-band parametric EQ unit but don't use it much now.
